Wonderful Stay!

"My family and I booked this as a family ice fishing trip. It exceeded our expectations! It was really nice and Steve and Patti were very accommodating and even allowed us to check in early, which let us drop all of our goods off before heading out on the lake Friday. The cabin was very clean and roomy! If we made a trip back to Lake Winnebago, we would definitely book again! Thanks Steve and Patti"

AMAZING HOME!

"I gathered my family of 14 (7 adults/7 children) for a once-in-a-lifetime family vacation. We traveled from AZ, Chicago and the Minneapolis area. Upon entering the home, our mouths dropped in amazement at the grandeur of the interior...and the setting on the lake. It far exceeded my expectations!!! There were so many amenities for the children as well...basketball, trampoline, tree house, tree swing...and more. So much fun cooking together in the very well-stocked kitchen, space for everyone to have privacy if desired, great music system and, of course, s'mores at the lakeside fire-pit made the overall experience unforgettable. The owners go above and beyond to provide a memorable experience for everyone. Thanks so much!"

FANTASTIC !!!!

"The booking experience was a breeze. Nicola was immediately responsive to the initial inquiry and the transaction couldn't have been easier.
The location is a stones throw from I 43 and very easy to find.
My first impression was WOW !!!! The first impression was not deceiving....it is an outstanding property !!!! The ambiance is of a modernized summer home of the 1930's, but I have never stayed in such a finely constructed and appointed lake home.
The house was lacking nothing. Bath and a half, every kitchen utensil ever needed, lots of warm water for the whirlpool bath, killer deck, spotlessly clean , crisp clean sheets,very comfortable bed, a ton of pillows and towels, central air ( didn't need it), WIFI , TV, ( had to check the weather), grill, fire pit, and privacy....
In spite of all that, the real attraction is the Million dollar view !!!! There are large picture windows facing Lake Michigan. Fantastic !!!
The pictures don't really do justice to how close the house is to the water . Neither do they really bring out the character of the house.
The beach was well kept, clean, and with comfortable chairs and an umbrella. The other property renters were not close enough to be an intrusion.
Only caveat is the cell phone coverage is spotty ...sometimes 4G , sometimes, no service. But what the heck , I didn't care...I was on vacation !! Text message worked. If you cant live without your cell you can hook up to the WIFI and that problem was solved. Also, they have a land line, so no obstacle to must make phone calls.
In summary Barbadon was a 5 star property that I intend to re visit...."

Escape the craziness of work

"This is our third trip to the Oostburg-based beach; our first to this charming home. The home sits right on the lake and offers a wonderful escape from the craziness of work! In fact, expect to take a full break from work because hotspots and cell service are spotty without a road trip toward town! But, ask yourself, why work when the lake beckons you to slow down and enjoy the fruits of your labour? Each morning the lakeside patio invited us to sit with coffee and watch the morning unfold across the lake or walk the mile plus of sandy shoreline. The quaint kitchen and Weber grill on the patio offered sufficient tools to cook a meal or make appetizers for happy hour. Bring bicycles. Town is just a short, 3-mile trip west; Andrea Kohler State Park, 5.5 miles to the north. When you return, take one of the loungers down to the sand, and do nothing. Come nightfall, watch the stars move across the expansive sky then fall asleep in the European style master bedroom (two twin beds) listening to the waves.
Insider Tips: Stay in touch with the owner. Ask for an early check-in (5:00pm is hardly enough time to get oriented and you pay for the entire day). And be prepared for the 10:00am required departure, which makes the end of your relaxing trip rushed."
